ChatGPT code interpreter is the best product to come out of @openai since GPT4.

It gives everyone a personal data analyst.

If you haven't tried it yet, let me show you exactly how it works:

@sagoforth @ReevesCanon Hah! I’m onboard for member #1! Can we get that tunnel all the way back here to NWA @ReevesCanon ?

[Sam Dean @scimachine]

@sagoforth I think that needs to be shouted out from the rooftops! Preparing for a career means preparing for a lifetime of twists, turns, surprises, and constant learning. What a journey it can be. And lots of sheet cakes on big dates.

@sagoforth Such a great insight! Interesting to see what kinds of PhD’s are more common for mid-career professionals? (I bet Education is one of them? What else?)

Wrapping up your class with intention can be really powerful. These *5 activities* bring SEL and academic reflection together. 🙌🏾

"In Pennsylvania – home of Fred Rogers – approaches like these are sometimes dubbed “the Fred Method,” referring to Fred’s belief that the best learning is both informed by science and supportive of the whole child." @AASAHQ @PADeptofEd @PasaSupts

Feeling energized after our build day with @ymcasf!

We worked with #YMCASF STEAM Specialists to build tinkering inventive play sets for #ExploringBalance and talked about remixes for different contexts.

We also tried a #zine as a reflection tool for the workshop! 📖🔨 (1/2)

You say it's your birthday? It's our birthday, too, yeah!

NASA was founded Oct. 1, 1958. On Oct. 1, 2001, @NASAHubble took this picture of a galaxy 50 million light-years away.

Friedman Dialogues & communicating science during the pandemic. Local matters. Build on relationships. ‘They’re real virologists who do real science in front of kids who now want to be scientists…’ ‘Role models matter…’ #astc2022 @Amazeum @ScienceCenters

#ASTC2022 Keep the momentum rolling! @amazeum
